Methodology

Screener results are computed from financial statement data, price history, and SEC filings. All metrics (ROIC, Piotroski F-Score, Altman Z-Score, Beneish M-Score, DCF, FTD volumes, Risk Factor word counts) are calculated deterministically using standard academic formulas and public government data sources. Results update when the data pipeline runs. None of the algorithmic screens constitute a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
